. . . is that he suppresses the creepy portamenti in the strings (instead of bringing them out, as most conductors do) - to me, it's an interesting take on this movement. My main disappointment with the WM recording lies with the engineering, which IMHO is slightly veiled compared with Litton and Gaffigan. (I don't know if I still have my old Abbado recording!) Another good two-channel one is the Gergiev/LSO on Warner - I also have Gergiev's blu-ray video done in-concert with his St. Petersburg forces, which I've come to feel is a bit synthetic sounding, with too many microphones, although it IS great to hear "Seven, They are Seven" and "Cantata for the 20th Anniversary of the October Revolution" in surround! In fact, I may crank up "Seven, They are Seven" for the trick or treaters when (or if!) they come around tonight - that'll show 'em not to come around next year!
